About Carly

Carly Andrews is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage strong emotions and life stressors. She focuses on practical ways to cope with depression, anxiety, trauma, and major life transitions. Carly aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

She uses a collaborative style that centers the client's goals. Sessions often focus on building self-compassion, improving communication, and learning skills to handle intense feelings like anger. Carly pays attention to how identity and life context affect emotional health.

Her background includes seven years working with a range of concerns, including relationship struggles, eating and sleeping problems, addiction, grief, and caregiver stress. That experience informs a straightforward approach to problem solving and coping. She also addresses attachment issues and family of origin concerns.

Carly draws from several therapeutic approaches to fit the person in front of her rather than forcing a single method. She blends techniques to help clients set values-based goals, change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and learn emotional regulation skills. The work is practical and goal-minded.

People who come for help can expect a respectful, affirming environment that acknowledges identity and cultural influences. Carly aims to equip clients with tools they can use between sessions to manage anger, reduce anxiety, and move toward clearer priorities.

Approaches that guide online work and goals

Carly uses therapeutic methods that focus on values, emotions, and practical skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and deciding what matters most, then taking small actions toward those values. This approach can help with anger, depression, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that increase distress. It often includes specific exercises to test beliefs and try new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships through distress tolerance and regulation techniques.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Carly will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they set priorities, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time so sessions fit into busy days. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions to keep progress moving forward.
